If I knew how to go about creating high quality parts that companies such as BrickForge are able to create, I wouldn't hesitate to take it upon myself to invest in the firefighter/ rescue market for tools and equipment. There are literally hundreds of enthusiasts who model fire engines and ambulances and recreate amazing scenes of fires, car accidents and other rescue incidents. These groups and individuals can be seen on MOCpages, flickr, specialized forums and groups on yahoo or even EmergencyBricks.com

Tools that seem like they'd be relatively easy and inexpensive to create but would yield high profit margins include:

I am personally a firefighter and paramedic in real life and would be happy to act as an adviser to help narrow down what would be best suited to this niche community, most recognizable, and of course what would be simplest and most feasible to be created. That is, if you do decide to take a stab at what I believe is indeed a really good market to tap into.

(There are plenty of builders who have spent thousands just on their trucks, and there is a large post in many forums including my own talking about their desire to purchase custom firefighting gear if it was out there)

I for one would buy at least 1/2 dozen fire extinguishers if they looked realistic and were able to sit on top of a stud (like the 1x1 round brick + tap combo that I am currently using)And I would buy a whole PILE of the medical stuff if it was offered.

I recon you could fill an entire mold with just fire and medical gear (or even 2 molds) and still sell more than enough to cover the costs if the designs are good enough
